Goal: SMU reunion.Thanks to a widespread facebook addiction, I discovered that my old friend Pete was now living in Finland (after some stints in Thailand, Canada, Scotland and Germany)... So what better excuse to board an overnight boat to Helsinki (which costs the same as riding the bus 4 times). Julia came up from Germany, and the two of us set out on a 7 day excusion in Eastern Europe.

we arrive aboard the cruise ship, after a hectic adventure the day before, whereby we went to the wrong cruise ship terminal and had to run with all our luggage in attempt to find a ship sailing to finland. I think I lost 5lbs in sweat! This madness was the result of a proven scientific fact which is: Swedes are incapable of giving directions. (this is not meant to be a derogatory statement, but ask any foreigner in Sweden and they will tell you that if you actually listened to Swedish advice you would believe that there are no bus stops, no pay phones, no convince stores etc. because when you ask anyone where they are they will always reply "I have no idea")
